Role for social media in pediatric liver disease: caregiver and provider perspectives.
This study examined the role of social media for caregivers of children with liver disease. A survey of caregivers was conducted as well as a survey of healthcare providers to understand the perceived benefits and harms of participation. Among 138 caregivers of children with liver disease, 97.8% agreed social media was a good place to learn and share patient experiences, and 88% agreed it was a good source of general information. Only 3% indicated they would use the information to change care without telling their provider. Among 217 healthcare providers, 55% believed social media may lead caregivers to change care management without telling their healthcare team.
